δ1429Δούρειος
planked, wooden
[sc. As in] the Greeks' wooden horse. Aristophanes [writes]: "in size as big as the wooden one, they would have the width to drive past each other, [...] and as to the length, [...] a hundred cubits".
Δούρειος· ὁ ξύλινος ἵππος τῶν Ἑλλήνων. Ἀριστοφάνης· μέγεθος ὅσον ὁ δούρειος, ὑπὸ τοῦ πλάτους ἂν παρελασαίτην, τὸ δὲ μῆκος, ἑκατοντόργυιον.
